Not saying all of the content is bullshit because, I don't know for certain, but your narrow minded view that these conclusions you've come to and these books you recommend are without error and those who disagree are uneducated and retarted, is infantile and a copout. This behavior is common in children. How old are you?
I never said I know anything about Adam or the Fall. I know what the Bible has to say about it and I see the evidence of a fallen humanity throughout History and everywhere around me.
If I read a book like this:
http://www.christianbook.com/now-thats-a...ew=details
Which declares there to be over 300 specific prophecies in the Old Testament that are fulfilled in the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ in the New Testament.
How do you know that is false?
IF I read books that you recommend that don't jive with other accounts, Who's right and who's wrong? One option is I could adopt your arrogant style, taking it upon myself to be the absolute authority that decides which ones are authentic facts, and call everyone retarted that doesn't agree with me.
Because I have studied Hebrew culture. I KNOW that the role of a prophet was not to predict anything, so your little game is meaningless in the context of Hebrew culture.
In fact sooth-saying was an abomination. Your "omen" reading was forbidden.
Deuteronomy 18 : 10
"Let no one be found among you who sacrifices their son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft"
How does it feel to be someone who practices abomination ?
Maybe THIS will help you.

There is no help for you. You never even heard of Martin Buber, have you ?
I also know there are just as many "failed" predictions.

Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble. - Joseph Campbell
